Ⅲ.阅读理解
The famous American poet Robert Frost once said, “Poetry is what gets lost in translation.” But Xu Yuanchong, a well-known Chinese translator, had tried to convey the beauty of ancient Chinese poetry throughout his life. His teacher Qian Zhongshu commented on his poetry translation, “You are dancing while chained by rhyme(押韵) and rhythm, but the dance shows amazing and extraordinary freedom and beauty, which is quite impressive.”
Since 1978, Xu had published more than 100 translated works in Chinese, English and French, reaching millions of readers at home and abroad. Most notably, he translated Chinese poems into rhymed verses in both English and French. He was also the first Asian winner of the Aurora Borealis Prize for Outstanding Translation of Fiction Literature.
Xu was known to be very fastidious in his work. For him, English is a “scientific” language that needs exactness while Chinese is an “artistic” language that includes a wider range of contents. Following this principle, Xu kept not only faithfulness in the sense but beauty in sensibility in his translation.
Through Xu’s translations, time-honored Chinese wisdom has made an impact on Western societies and the world. For example, when former US President Barack Obama tried to begin a healthcare project during his presidency, some senators(参议员) disagreed at first. But after reading the poem titled Fishing in Snow translated by Xu, one senator was so impressed with the fisherman’s independent thinking that he chose to part with the party line to support Obama.
Having made such great achievements, Xu maintained a routine. Every day he translated about 1,000 words, working till 3a.m. to 4 a.m., sleeping for about 3 hours and getting up at 6 a.m. to continue.“Translation is a vital means of communicating with the writer’s soul. A sudden flicker(闪现) of a good word or a good line thrills every pore (毛孔) and every inch of my skin,” Xu said.
1.What does the text tell us about Xu Yuanchong?
A.He mastered at least three foreign languages.
B.He translated about 100 Chinese works into English.
C.He was the first winner of the Aurora Borealis Prize.
D.He was widely known for his translated rhymed poems.
2.What does the underlined word “fastidious” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.Particular. B.Satisfied. C.Inventive. D.Productive.
3.Why does the author give the example in Paragraph 4?
A.To recommend Xu’s translation works. B.To stress the charm of Chinese poetry.

Ⅳ.七选五
Maybe you’re a young scientist wanting to have an influence on the world, or a more seasoned veteran of scientific study who is curious about how to get better in your job. Either way, there are several crucial stTIF to develop your ability to make positive contributions to the world.
Experiment with new ideas. An important part of scientific discovery is the result of hard work and luck. Luck has frequently played a major role in scientific discovery. 1 You never know when experimentation and luck will collide (碰撞) to create an important discovery.
Be open to failure. You may think a scientist should be smart, skilled in mathematics, and precise. 2 Being a scientist is 90% failure and 10% success.
Take charge of your ideas. Challenge yourself to come up with one idea related to your project a day. 3 As a scientist in a competitive field, you need to create your own opportunities by owning your ideas and working hard to develop them further.
Practice your writing skills. 4 Try to do a little writing every day, and put your ideas or thoughts down on paper so you get into the habit of recording your ideas, which could later end up in a published paper or in a lecture about your latest scientific theory.
5 Though hard work is necessary for you to be a remarkable scientist, it’s vital to strike a balance between professional work and personal downtime. Don’t let yourself get burnt out.
A.Keep a balance between hard work and rest.
B.So, don’t be afraid to play around with new ideas.
C.You will do better work if you work with someone else.
D.Create a writing process that suits you and stick to it.
E.You should be open to the solutions offered by others in the field.
F.Though some of them will be bad, many could lead to a new experiment or theory.
G.However, an important quality a good scientist should have is the willingness to fail.

Ⅴ.读后续写
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文.
Maddy’s daughter Cathy suffered from a condition called spina bifida (脊柱裂). She spent most of her life in a wheelchair, which made even the simplest tasks a tough challenge. One such challenge for Cathy was getting a haircut. As Maddy’s neighbor, I witnessed the daily struggle firsthand and felt the urge to help. A hairstylist myself, I decided to visit Maddy’s home to cut Cathy’s hair. Little did I know this small act would light a spark within me.
Through my visit, I realized that many others in our community had the same problem. Maddy explained the difficulties special groups of people encountered—the loud noises and strong smells in regular hair salons were too much for people with autism(自闭症). Also, just getting into a salon was tough for people in wheelchairs. Her words touched me, and I wondered if there was something more I could do to help.
An idea began to form in my mind—I could open a special salon, a place where people with physical disabilities or psychological problems would feel more comfortable. It wouldn’t be tough to enter for people in wheelchairs; it would also have floors with different textures(纹理) to help those who can’t see well. To make the place even more comfortable, it would have calm music instead of loud pop songs. Toys and blankets would be on hand to help people stay calm. Hairstylists would use quiet hairdryers and soft voices. They would also learn how to help customers who don’t like others touching their hair. Most importantly, they would treat every customer with the same level of respect.
The only issue was that I didn’t have the funds to make this dream a reality. As a hairstylist, I had limited savings. Maddy suggested, “How about organizing a community bazaar (义卖) in our neighborhood this Saturday to raise funds for the salon?” Her eyes shone with enthusiasm as she continued, “People love supporting good causes, and I’m sure many will join in to help create a place where everyone feels comfortable getting a haircut.” I nodded, recognizing the brilliance in her plan.
注意:续写词数应为 150个左右。
As Saturday approached,something changed in our neighborhood.
Even after the end of the community bazaar,our neighbors’ support didn’t stop there.

8.which 考查定语从句。逗号前主谓宾结构完整,空后是动词gathered,且由语境可知动词gathered的主语即空前的名词Zhui Shu,所以设空处引导非限制性定语从句,关系词在定语从句中作主语,指物,故填which。句意:除了在圆周率方面的成就外,他还写了《缀术》这本书,该书汇集了他在数学方面的成就,并在唐朝被作为教材。
9.was taken 考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意同上。分析句子可知,在which引导的定语从句中,and连接两个并列的谓语(即设空处与前面的gathered),关系词which指代先行词Zhui Shu在从句中作主语,和动词take是被动关系,结合during the Tang Dynasty可知句子描述的是过去发生的事情,所以要用一般过去时的被动语态,主语表示单数意义,be动词用was。故填was taken。
10.contribution 考查名词。make a great contribution to意为“对……做出巨大贡献”,故填contribution。
Ⅲ.语篇解读 这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国著名翻译家许渊冲对于翻译的贡献。
1.D 细节理解题。 根据第二段内容可知,自1978年以来,许渊冲已出版了100多部中英法翻译作品,在国内外拥有数百万读者。尤其是他将中国诗翻译成英语和法语的押韵诗。所以他以翻译押韵诗而广为人知。故选D。选项中的poems与文中的verses为同义表达,都表示“诗”。
2.A 词义猜测题。画线词所在句的意思是:人们知道,许渊冲在他的作品中非常 。后文讲到,对他来说,英语是一种“科学的”语言,需要精确,而汉语是一种“艺术的”语言,包含更广泛的内容。遵循这个原则,他在翻译中既保持了意义上的忠实,又保持了鉴赏上的美。由此可推知,他在翻译时是极其严谨和注重细节的,particular意为“讲究的,挑剔的”,符合语境。故选A。
3.C 推理判断题。第四段第一句讲到,通过许渊冲的翻译作品,古老的中国智慧对西方社会和世界产生了影响。后文举的例子正是许渊冲翻译的诗对西方的影响,由此可知举例是为了说明许渊冲的翻译技巧之高。故选C。
4.D 推理判断题。根据最后一段第二句可知,许渊冲每天翻译大约1,000个词,工作到凌晨3、4点,睡3个小时左右,早上6点起床继续工作。由此可推知,他对工作非常刻苦努力(hard-working);根据最后一段他说的话可知,在他看来,翻译是与作者心灵交流的一种方式。突然闪现的一个好词或句子让他的每一个毛孔和每一寸皮肤都兴奋不已。由此可知,许渊冲热衷(enthusiastic)于翻译事业。故选D。A.深思熟虑且谦逊的;B.慷慨且客观的;C.富有创造力且思想开明的。
Ⅳ.语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章为想要为世界做出积极贡献的从事科学研究工作的人提供了几个培养能力的关键方法。
1.B 细节句。根据本段主旨句“Experiment with new ideas.(尝试新想法)”再结合选项可知B项(所以,不要害怕玩弄新的想法)符合本段主旨,B选项中的“new ideas”和主旨句中的“new ideas”对应,是原词复现,且B项和空上句“运气在科学发现中经常扮演重要角色”构成因果关系,符合语境。故选B。
2.G 过渡句。根据空上句“你可能认为科学家应该聪明,擅长数学,而且细致”和空下句“作为一个科学家,失败占90%,成功占10%”再结合选项可知,G项(然而,一个优秀的科学家应该具备的一个重要品质是愿意失败)承上启下,对空上句进行语意上的转折,说明科学家也会失败,同时引出下文,进一步说明科学家失败是常事,符合语境。G项中的“fail”和下句中的“failure”对应。故选G。
3.F 细节句。空上句“Challenge yourself to come up with one idea related to your project a day.”建议努力想出各种点子。分析选项可知,F项(虽然其中一些会是不好的,但许多可能会促使一个新的实验或学说产生)符合本段主要内容,且与空上句衔接紧密。故选F。
4.D 细节句。根据主旨句“练习你的写作技巧”可知,D项(创造一个适合你的写作过程,并坚持下去)是对练习写作技能的具体说明,符合语境,“writing”是关键词。故选D。
5.A 主旨句。根据文章结构及其他段的主旨句位置可推知设空处为本段主旨句。根据本段中的“strike a balance between professional work and personal downtime(使专业工作和个人休息达到平衡)”和“Dont let yourself get burnt out.(别把自己累垮)”可知本段主要讨论要平衡工作和休息。A项(努力工作和休息之间要保持平衡)符合本段主旨。故选A。

One possible version:
As Saturday approached,something changed in our neighborhood. The familiar streets became lively with colorful stalls, each offering different goods and crafts. The smell of freshly baked bread filled the air, and the sounds of laughter and cheerful chatter echoed in the air. Neighbors, young and old, flocked to the event, making contributions not only as buyers but also as sellers and volunteers. Our community bazaar, once just an idea, had blossomed into a real gathering with a shared purpose. Seeing how successful the event was, I felt excited and grateful. Judging from Maddys smile, I knew she shared the same feeling with me.
Even after the end of the community bazaar,our neighbors support didnt stop there. Donations continued to flow in, and several local businesses reached out to us, offering to sponsor or donate materials for the salon. My heart would swell with joy every time I saw their enthusiastic smiles. After six months, we finally had enough funds to open our hair salon. I invited Cathy to be our first customer. As I watched the scissors cutting through the air, I realized it wasnt just a haircut for Cathy — it symbolized the sympathy and care of social members coming together to make a positive difference.
